Fogué, who describes herself as a heavy metal fan with a soft spot for Hello Kitty, challenged Elii principles (including Eva Gil Lopesino, Carlos Palacios, and Uriel Fogué Herreros) to design her 620 square foot space around the theory that life is a performance and the apartment is the stage.

“Every house, in a way is a theater, where you perform your everyday life,” said Herreros. “In this case, the apartment was designed for somebody who was starting a new life and in this domestic stage, she will be able to test and try this new leaf.”

$75,000 later, Fogué’s home includes an open floor plan filled with clever space-saving contraptions to meet the diverse demands of her daily life. Check out some of the camouflaged additions below, including a table and benches that drop down from the ceiling, a secret dressing table built into the bathroom floor, hidden storage compartments, and lightweight partitions that can be easily repositioned to create a separate dining room or extra bedroom for guests.
